In January 2018, Raleigh native Maggie Kane opened Raleigh's first pay-what-you-can cafe, A Place at the Table. Today she talks to Caroline and Craig about the why and how of how it all got started, how the Triangle community has been so supportive, and what she likes to do in the City of Oaks when she's not working.
WHAT WE TALK ABOUT:
Who is "A Place At The Table"
How does this pay-what-you-can cafe operate
Maggie's background and how she got inspired to do what she does
Her time at NC State University
How working at a day shelter inspired what she does now
Why it took 4 years to open the cafe and get it off the ground (and who helped her)
How the volunteer program works (and the $10 token)
Generous stories of paying it forward
Her purpose in life and knowing her WHY
Why it's important to ask for help and have a support system
The power of support in the Triangle region
Her hopes for the future of downtown Raleigh
And so much more!
